Potatoes for Dinner

 We were having steaks for dinner last night but only had one potato in the house.  So we decided to harvest one of our container potato plants.  We planted them in these 20 gallon plastic containers and added dirt as the plants grew.  It is an easy method as you just dump the container on a tarp to complete the harvest.  We were quite pleased as this container yielded about three pounds of potatoes with several good baked potato size.  So a great dinner with home grown potatoes.
